If they can't afford to pay rent then where should they live.
I'm a christian so I feel they should be housed, and kept safe by society. But we don't live in a Christian nation.
Well we do need a national solution. There is 30% vacancy of homes in the rust belt. Get them on a basic SSI, Medicaid, and into those homes and maybe they can make progress. But moving homeless between states is very divisive; but as a nation we have a lot of housing. If any one state started building homes or housing supports, then it attracts homelessness, so that serves to discourage investment and programs.

BLACK teenagers, to be specific. The base will really get their rocks off with that imagery.
I’m genuinely terrified for the majority of Black teenagers here who do mind their business and don’t commit crimes. It’s a handful of kids reoffending over and over again. I just don’t want innocent kids getting targeted out of this situation.
But you've had no problem with this (bolded) going on for years, right?
Look you have no problem with criminal gang of pedophiles and human traffickers taking over the Republican Party. You only care about the blacks?
Ha. No. Just people who are finally willing to solve problems.
Those are the same people who put an alcoholic in charge of the DOD.

Uh, I spend A LOT of time in Wards 7 and 8. Again, where are the slums? clearly YOU have not been to Congress Heights, Hillcrest, Deanwood, historic Anacostia, Ft. Dupont - seriosly, not slums and houses going for close to a million, and billions of investment coming in a st Elizabeths, Barry Farms, Bridge District, Minnesota Avenue and so on. I think you have NO idea what you are talking about. Does that mean there are not problems? Of course not, but the city you and the president are describing is not reality.
Your rebuttal to being told your privilege is showing is to cherry pick examples of areas where houses are selling for close to a million? What?
I live in Minnesota AVE, there fights and some gun shots sometimes, its safe.. no need for the National Guard to come. No need for a federal takeover..
I live in Shaw.
We hear of shootouts near 7th and O (drug activity and rival gangs) all the time and all of our neighbors stopped going to the playground at the Kennedy Rec Center.
The Shaw library branch has a group openly dealing drugs and other merchandise right in front of the doors. The library staff hates it but said they have no jurisdiction outside the doors. There are shootings every couple months right there. My kids and other kids go there, sometimes I think I'm crazy for allowing that, but I'm determined to live in a place where my kids can do the very innocent activity of getting books from their neighborhood library.
We all avoid the bus station at 7th and Florida, because there are always about a dozen people tweaking out, maybe from fentanyl.
There is absolutely a crime problem here and a feeling of lawlessness in DC (no consequences). That doesn't mean Trump has the right solution, but he has identified an issue. We aren't doing ourselves any favors by pretending it's not true.

We had one big disruptive incident on July 4 and it has been dealt with by DC PD and curfew. I have no fear walking around my neighborhood by myself. We have almost no homeless people here. What we do have that "scares" people is a significant number of low income black people walking around. They are not dangerous at all, but people are freaked out by people who look poor and make noise sometimes. Please don't project your anxieties on those of us living here and paying $$$ for lovely apartments in a walkable neighborhood. I do not want armed men on my streets, Thanks anyway.
